Tickets now available for YPC Erie's 'Love Call me Home' concert

April 24, 2017

ERIE, Pa. — “There’s no place like home.” It’s more than cliché. Sometimes there is nothing more therapeutic than a trip back home.

That’s a theme that will be emphasized in “Love Call me Home,” this year’s spring concert from the Young People’s Chorus of Erie.

“What is it that calls us back, that beckons us home to the core of ourselves and our best and noblest aspirations? A lot of the time, it’s love,” said Gabrielle Dietrich, YPC’s artistic director. “Something wakes us up in our weaker moments and reminds us that we are here to do more than win or feel good — maybe it’s a friendly dog, a laughing baby at the grocery store, a patient driver letting us cut into their lane or a close friend kindly telling us the uncomfortable truth. Love brings us back to our senses, makes us take a breath, and calls us home. ‘Love Call me Home’ is a program about love, but also about the times we might lose our way and need another chance.”

The concert begins at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 12, at Luther Memorial Church, 225 West 10th St. in Erie.
